Recap previously taught prefixes and suffixes by using this Year 2 Consolidating Prefixes and Suffixes Modelling PowerPoint. This set of slides revisits prefixes and suffixes such as un-, -ful, -ment, -er and -ness to check that children still have a secure understanding of how these can change the meaning of the word.
This slide show covers a range of varied fluency and reasoning and problem-solving questions. Use this ahead of our worksheet-based activities to reintroduce the topic.
Curriculum Objectives
- Regular plural noun suffixes –s or –es [for example, dog, dogs; wish, wishes], including the effects of these suffixes on the meaning of the noun / Suffixes that can be added to verbs where no change is needed in the spelling of root words (e.g. helping, helped, helper) / Terminology for pupils: singular / Terminology for pupils: plural
- How the prefix un– changes the meaning of verbs and adjectives [negation, for example, unkind, or undoing: untie the boat]
- Formation of nouns using suffixes such as –ness, –er and by compounding [for example, whiteboard, superman] / Formation of adjectives using suffixes such as –ful, –less (A fuller list of suffixes can be found in the year 2 spelling section in English Appendix 1) / Use of the suffixes –er, –est in adjectives / Terminology for pupils: compound / Terminology for pupils: suffix
